can't make the rails console run on cygwin

Question

Thanks in advance.

I'm running Rails under Cygwin. Everything seams to work fine but the rails console. When I want to run the console, this is the error I get:

$ rails console

Any help will be appreciated

Looks like you don't have the gem "minitest" installed in your Gemfile.
